Today, hundreds of #unionworkers are on Parliament Hill telling politicians to bring in and implement publicly funded, publicly delivered #Pharmacare now! Chrystia Freeland @JusinTrudeau @markhollandlib #canlab #cdnpoli #cdnhealth Jagmeet Singh Don Davies

#DYK Canada is the only country in the world with a universal health care system that does not include coverage for prescription medications? It's time for a universal, comprehensive & public #pharmacare program for all. Show your support: pharmacare.nursesunions.ca #cdnpoli

Canadian Labour Congress Canadian Labour pushes for universal public #pharmacare legislation The Globe and Mail Jan27. Time to deliver for #cdn people Chrystia Freeland @markhollandlib Justin Trudeau #canpoli #cdbhealth #affordablefuture #aplanforeveryone

Optimistic signs. IF this is #universal, single-payer coverage for birth control (pills & IUDs), plus diabetes meds (insulin, metformin, etc), we'd be off to a good start saving💰& keeping ppl healthier. Hope there will be even more essential meds covered. theglobeandmail.com/politics/artic…

This is a BIG deal! It's going to save working Canadians thousands of dollars. Congratulations to everyone who made this deal possible. #Pharmacare #CDNpoli cbc.ca/news/politics/…

This scale of this victory can't be overstated, when nearly 1M people sacrifice basic necessities to afford medications. These are the real issues Canadians are struggling with – not the fake outrage that Mr. Poilievre talks about. #CDNpoli #Pharmacare canadianlabour.ca/statement-from…

Today’s announcement on #Pharmacare is one of the biggest advanced in healthcare ever. Imagine: shortly, the roughly 4 million diabetics in Canada will be able to take their health card and Rx to their pharmacist and get insulin or pills for free. No deductible, no copayment.

When Justice Emmett Hall tabled the Royal Commission in 1964 recommending national #pharmacare, he probably didn't think it would take 60 years to start. Better late than never. A small but mighty step. Now more people can fill prescriptions & we'll all pay less for better care.

The rights of Canadian women are too important to get caught up in Conservative partisan antics. Pierre Poilievre must stop putting roadblocks in front of free birth control. #PassPharmacareActNow #canlab #cdnpoli 🧵1/3

Good news: the Pharmacare Act has passed 2nd reading & is off to #HESA. This bill will enhance our health care system & put money back into the pockets of millions of workers & their families. Now MPs must work together to get it passed quickly. #PharmacareNow

Dear Senators- pass C-64 Act respecting Pharmacare like yesterday! What are millions of Canadians still waiting for their medications?!? cpac.ca/headline-polit…

People need to get their teeth attended to. It’s basic health care.

#Canada needs #pharmacare now  Delays continue to threaten Bill #C-64’s passage, leaving millions of Canadians without the prescription coverage they urgently need. hilltimes.com/story/2024/10/… via @thehilltimes

We did it! 🎉 For over a decade, unions, activists & health care advocates, and political leaders have tirelessly fought for pharmacare. Today, Senate of Canada finally passed Bill C-64, which will grant free contraception and diabetes medication and devices to everyone who needs them

The debate consortium has cut health care from the leaders’ debate. It’s a staggering disservice to Canadians—and proof they’re out of touch. Health care is a top priority across the country. Cutting it out is indefensible. @Debates_Can #cdnpoli #Debates2025

Seriously 😳 #Healthcare is NOT part of April 16&17 federal leaders debates @Debates_Can put #cdnhealthcare back in the debates #Debates2025 #cdnpoli @theJagmeeSingh Mark Carney Pierre Poilievre Cdn Health Coalition Friends of Medicare Canadian Medical Association

Thank you Jagmeet Singh for forcing health care into the debate—where it belongs. Canadians deserve leaders like you who will protect and expand public health care, not those who profit on people's health. #cdnpoli #Debates2025

Canada’s unions met with Minister Leblanc today with one clear message ahead of #CUSMA's review: workers must come first. Trade cannot weaken jobs, public services, or our ability to build a strong, domestic economy. No deal is better than a bad deal. canadianlabour.ca/workers-must-c…

Canada can’t afford international trade decisions that leave workers paying the price. Decisions that affect jobs, supply chains, and our industrial future must be grounded in fairness, accountability, and long-term economic resilience. Our statement: canadianlabour.ca/statement-on-c…
